6 ways to give dad an apron

does your dad love to cook and grill?

we thought of a few ways to dress up a café apron, 

and we're sure you can think of something special 

that fits his personality to a tee.

here are 6 of our favorites.

1. it's true… dads and kids who cook together, laugh together. 

we found some clever tools to help, 

perfect for healthy eating and lots of smiles. 

2. essentials for father's day: 

a saw to cut the cake, a professional ice cream scoop, 

and an apron to just look good while dishing it up. yum!

3. create a complete package for any dad in the kitchen: 

some practical and helpful tools, that make him look good too! 

4. your very cool dad will love his new apron 

when you hand him a lemonade with moustache ice cubes 

and a classy straw.

5. get outside and play. 

here are some easy games to play while grilling. 

take a break, chase a frisbee, and start a paddleball challenge.

6. he'll look especially sporting in his apron 

with his favorite team's ball cap and a matching bandana. 

dress him up on his special day.

 wrapping it up:

butcher paper wrap

keep it simple and "in the kitchen" with butcher paper and twine.

(and don't forget to make him a card!)

funny papers wrap

if your dad is funny, this is perfect.

grab the sunday comics before he gets to them. 

he will definitely smile when he sees his present.
